Sorry fo...@pewpewaliens and Solomon&#39;s Chariots,<br />Sorry for the typo. It should read that the Easter Churches follow the ANTIOCHIAN calculation of Easter.

One note, though, Easter this year was April 24, not March 24.<br /><br />I hope you will spend more time in the future discussing the evolution of the Roman vs. Eastern split, how that evolved. I believe there are some, as you point out, Eastern Catholic sects. The interrelationships elude me, and I realize this is a quite complex subject, but seems that a historical review might also provide fodder for highlighting certain tenets of the professed faith.<br /><br />Thanks<br /><br />TimAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5578980753063154388.post-63160862309033369072011-05-18T21:07:24.319-07:002011-05-18T21:07:24.319-07:00&quot;In this dispute Pope St. John I sided with t...&quot;In this dispute Pope St. John I sided with the Alexandrians, and this has become the norm in the West. However, many (perhaps all) of the Eastern Churches (both Catholic and Orthodox) follow the Alexandrian calculation of Easter.
